My mother and I had an excellent experience with Briggs as sellers of antiquities. My mom was…read moredownsizing into a smaller residence, and had to give up many precious antiques that she and her mother had collected for years. Everything that Briggs did to handle the estate was top-notch: from initial communication about the process and their pricing structure, to carefully packing and moving the items, to researching and assessing each piece, and finally, to selling the items with detailed, accurate descriptions, then providing a detailed list of what sold, for how much, and a check sent within a month of the last sale. Josie from Briggs was great both on the phone and over email (and in person, per my mom). My mom said she couldn't be happier with Briggs - even if some items didn't fetch as much money as we had hoped they would, we felt like everything was handled very professionally and fairly - and sometimes, antiques just don't go for as much as you'd think they would. It's a finicky market. Many thanks to Josie and the Briggs team for their outstanding professionalism and service!

Jenny took her time inspecting and thoroughly testing my jewelry. I am used to someone looking quickly and making rush decisions. She grouped my items into separate piles according to purity of metal, and she explained the value of the groups to me. She went out of her way to try to take as much as she could, and apologized for what she could not take. She was incredibly professional and courteous, and when she was finished, she offered me more than what I would have received at my usual place. I highly recommend Exton Gold Buyers, especially if you are uncertain about the value of your items. This place is above and beyond what I would have expected in a mall that's been losing businesses left and right over the years. Thank you, Jenny!

A different sales person was there and i told him i wanted to return the shades since they did not work for me. The sales person told me they do not take returns after 7 days. I informed him that it was only six days, in addition I was never told that at the time of sale. He continued to say he could place a special order because he can't give a return. He grabbed the lamp shades without giving me a refund. I stopped him from taking them until I received my refund. He refused to give me a refund for at least 45 minutes! I even called my credit card company to find a way to cancel my purchase. The sales person was taking pictures of me while I was on the phone with the credit card company. The person on the phone could hear parts of the conversation and was concerned. I asked for his name. He refused to give it to me. I asked if he owned the store. He did not, so I asked for the name of the owner and how to contact her or him. Was told the owners name was Steve Yack and I could reach Steve by calling the store, but he was not there, or email him at chesterlighting503@gmail.com. As I was writing an email while in the store, the unnamed salesperson insisted he would give me a refund if I signed a blank piece of paper. I did not. Finally he processed the return. I also took pictures of the sales person after I saw him videoing me or taking pictures while I was on the phone with my credit card company. This was the most abysmal customer experience. A quick 5 minute exchange turned into an unnecessary 45 minute fiasco. I always try and support local small businesses however this business is one I strongly advise you avoid. I did send the email to the owner but did not yet receive a response. Very sad.
